All roads lead to Hershey! The Hershey meet week is a true enthusiast’s affair, bringing together collectors and hobbyists from far and wide for the largest swap meet in the United States. The historic Hershey Lodge is the setting for RM Sotheby’s annual sale, a feature attraction of the famed AACA Eastern Division Fall Meet.

A mainstay on the global collector car calendar, the Hershey sale is known for its presentation of exceptional Brass and Classic Era motor cars, with a strong emphasis on significant American marques. The event has also successfully presented a number of private collections as headline attractions within the annual catalogue auction. A testament to the incredible quality of the automobiles on offer, RM Sotheby’s posted its strongest Hershey results to date in 2014, with more than $14 million in total sales and an impressive 93 percent of all lots sold.
